Neuroscience retreat!!!!! Pickleball, pong, darts, cornhole, minigolf, Neuro trivia & fellowship #paintedpickle Welcome to @EmoryUniversity

Proud to share this @biorxiv_neursci #preprint that characterizes the response (or lack thereof) of #sympathetic axons to ES after #PNI ⚡ Regenerative failure of sympathetic axons contributes to deficits in functional recovery after nerve injury biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

A beautiful day for a Happy Tails break! So glad to have played a part in putting this event together for the Graduates in Neuroscience ☀️🌳🌸🐶

Our CNS regeneration work is now online. Terrific postdocs @manasiagrawal1 and @meghaldesai completed the revision experiments. @RutgersSASN @RutgersU #acknowledgments" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Shoutout to @BrittneyW42826 for making lab #coffeehour that much more enjoyable 😁

To those curious, Christopher Reeve never overcame his physical disability from #SCI, but his mental approach to continuing life & recognizing what was important to him & what he had left to give to his family, his community, & others with disability became his driving force

Back on the road ✈️ speaking @NANS_ION for #neuromodulation #neuralinjury #spinalcordinjury. & Re-watching Super/man: The Christopher Reeve Story. If you haven’t seen it, please make time. It’s an incredible story of overcoming disability, advocacy, & how 1 person can change 🌎

Wonderful time presenting @winter_brain in #LakeTahoe ⛷️ with @VeronicaTomlab @TedsunL @stereotactics, & 🙏🏼 ASIA for sponsoring our session!! Also, many reflections on Dr. Jerry Silver. He was a mentor to many & is clearly missed already in our field. #winterbrain #WCBR2025 #SCI

Latest paper from the @emoryalvarezlab , which I'm grateful to have been able to contribute to, and got me started on my current love affair with motoneurons biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I'll be giving an online Meet the Experts talk for the Society of Neuroscience next  Wednesday at 1PM. This is a career talk that may be good for students and trainees.  Its free for SfN members and $15 for nonmembers. neuronline.sfn.org/scientific-res…

Come be my colleague! The Dept of Cell Biology @EmoryUniversity is recruiting a developmental cell biologist. 🔬Do you study mechanisms of development using cell biological (and other) approaches? Join us!🔬 TY for RT! jobs.sciencecareers.org/job/664684/ten…

@PottorfTana @NIH_NINDS @NIH @ncats_nih_gov @EmoryUniversity @neurophd_emory @emoryalvarezlab @laneygradschool So proud of you!!

Beautiful weather to visit Bethesda, talk science, and be a recipient of the 2024 Outstanding Scholar in Neuroscience Award Program #OSNAP #osnap2024 @NIH_NINDS @NIH @ncats_nih_gov

@SpinalResearch was proud to put on a small private screening of the new "Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story" film in London on Thursday. Many friends, colleagues, partners, and supporters gathered to watch a film about a man who transcends lore, imagination, and brutal reality.

Happy Halloween from @WardLab_Emory !! 🎃
